Me And Bobby McGee, Dire Wolf, Good Lovin' > Drums > Good Lovin', Casey Jones > Uncle John's Band
Notes
This is the complete set played on 12/23/70 at Winterland. It does not include the four-song excerpt ("Hard to Handle" through "Cold Rain and Snow") from 12/17/70 that was long thought to be a part of this show. At the end, Phil says: "Good night, folks. Merry Christmas and God bless you!" And Jerry adds: "Thanks for helping us bail out the Bear!"
The show had been billed as a benefit for the Montessori School featuring the "Acoustic Dead" together with Hot Tuna and the New Riders of the Purple Sage. "This is how it exists on Bear's cassettes," wrote Dick on a note attached to the cassette copy. "I can't be responsible for how Deadbase has the songs listed."

Luxuriate in the sound of this
Damn, that's an extremely fine live recording of an incredible band performing some great songs at perfect intensity. There's just the right amount of
...
feedback and some really sweet reverb. There's a few spots of noise here and there where Bear might be pushing things too hard but that's only part of the excitement, right? The vocals are tight and the playin' is sublime. Probably due to the guitar tone, parts of the Good Lovin' jam remind me of the best parts of Blind Faith's "Do What You Like". Very very cool.
